Question 1

A chemical reaction is most likely to be spontaneous if it is accompanied by

increasing energy and increasing entropy
lowering energy and increasing entropy
increasing energy and decreasing entropy
lowering energy and decreasing entropy
None of these are correct.

Question 2

A mixture of hydrogen and chlorine remains unreacted until it is exposed to ultraviolet light from a burning magnesium strip. Then the following reaction occurs very rapidly:
 
 
 
H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)
ΔG = –45.54 kJ
 
 
 
 
ΔH = –44.12 kJ
 
 
 
 
ΔS = –4.76 J/K
Which of the following is consistent with this information?


The reactants are thermodynamically more stable than the products.
The reaction has a small equilibrium constant.
The ultraviolet light raises the temperature of the system and makes the reaction more favorable.
The negative value for ΔS slows down the reaction.
The reaction is spontaneous, but the reactants are kinetically stable.

Common abbreviations that cause medication errors include U (unit), mg (milligram), QD (every day), SC (subcutaneous), TIW (three times per week), D/C (discharge or discontinue), HS (at bedtime or "hours of sleep"), cc (cubic centimeters), and AU (each ear).

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Did you know?

Astigmatism is the most common vision problem. It may accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness. It is usually caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, but sometimes it is the result of an irregularly shaped lens. Either type can be corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.
